132 Corinthians 13

1This third time do I come unto you; on the mouth of two witnesses or three shall every saying be established;Select 2 Corinthians 13:1

2I have said before, and I say it before, as being present, the second time, and being absent, now, do I write to those having sinned before, and to all the rest, that if I come again, I will not spare,Select 2 Corinthians 13:2

3since a proof ye seek of the Christ speaking in me, who to you is not infirm, but is powerful in you,Select 2 Corinthians 13:3

4for even if he was crucified from infirmity, yet he doth live from the power of God; for we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him from the power of God toward you.Select 2 Corinthians 13:4

5Your own selves try ye, if ye are in the faith; your own selves prove ye; do ye not know your own selves, that Jesus Christ is in you, if ye be not in some respect disapproved of?Select 2 Corinthians 13:5

6and I hope that ye shall know that we--we are not disapproved of;Select 2 Corinthians 13:6

7and I pray before God that ye do no evil, not that we may appear approved, but that ye may do that which is right, and we may be as disapproved;Select 2 Corinthians 13:7

8for we are not able to do anything against the truth, but for the truth;Select 2 Corinthians 13:8

9for we rejoice when we may be infirm, and ye may be powerful; and this also we pray for--your perfection!Select 2 Corinthians 13:9

10because of this, these things--being absent--I write, that being present, I may not treat any sharply, according to the authority that the Lord did give me for building up, and not for casting down.Select 2 Corinthians 13:10

11Henceforth, brethren, rejoice; be made perfect, be comforted, be of the same mind, be at peace, and the God of the love and peace shall be with you;Select 2 Corinthians 13:11

12salute one another in an holy kiss;Select 2 Corinthians 13:12

13salute you do all the saints;Select 2 Corinthians 13:13

14the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, is with you all! Amen.Select 2 Corinthians 13:14
